For the last couple of years, I find myself looking for a new type of music to listen to. I read all these threads on here about people wanting to put stereos of sorts into their Pups, and all I can think of is that there is nothing to listen to anyway, why bother?

Throughout the 70's and 80's, I listened to all the big Heavy Metal bands. From the South...

I need help finding a new music genre]]>452016 Colorado FJ-Owners RallyThu, 28 Sep 2017 19:27:18 +0000http://www.popupportal.com/threads/2016-colorado-fj-owners-rally.106048/

Every year, there are a bunch of FJ (Yamaha) Rallies in various places around the country, and I usually attend one of them each summer.
Last year we had one in the Black Hills. The year before that, I went to the one in Willits California.
This year I decided to host one. After a whole bunch of research and scouting rides, I chose Ouray Colorado.

Ill start. Play acoustic guitar for fun. go to Bluegrass Festivals and Jam and have one lot of fun. Have 4 acoustic guitars and one electric I built from a kit. have bought sold a few guitars over the years..

My favorite day hike is the profile trail at Grandfather Mtn. in N.C. You go out to McRae Peak and the Calloway Peak. They are about 6600 ft. For those of you in the Rockies I know that elevation seems low but for east of the Miss. River that's really high.

The reason I like the trail is the amazing views and the challenging terrain.]]>24popupportal seasonSat, 11 Feb 2017 14:11:32 +0000http://www.popupportal.com/threads/popupportal-season.110024/

I spend winter planning camping trips and modding my camper. When spring arrives, we are so busy camping, backpacking, or following my kids sports activities.

Thanks Portal, for helping me through the long winters. ]]>3Do you believe? Part 2Sat, 28 Jan 2017 00:04:09 +0000http://www.popupportal.com/threads/do-you-believe-part-2.4911/

Depending on the campsite, there might be nobody ready to jam. Music festivals are a different story but there's...

I was wondering if a Hand Transmitter would be enough while camping or if I should install a portable unit inside the PUP. I know a lot of it will depend on terrain and what I'm seeking to get out of it.
I'm new to HAM radio and my wife is also working on getting her ticket.
We both have HT's which will be useful on hikes or things of that nature, but if we're boondocking I don't know if that will be enough power to make contact with the locals. Both HT's are about 5 watts....
